Let’s Get the Science Guys in There

In this very special bonus episode, hosts John Verrico and Deepak Saini are joined by S&T’s new Under Secretary, Dr. Dimitri Kusnezov. He has previously served at the U.S. Department of Energy and National Nuclear Security Administration and is eager to now put his leadership and scientific background to use guiding S&T into its 20th year and beyond. Dimitri, as he prefers his colleagues call him, discusses everything from artificial intelligence and machine learning to quantum computing and 5G. He also touches upon why it’s so important that science has a seat at the table when it comes to making policy decisions. Listen until the end to catch him letting his nerd flag fly during a series of rapid fire questions.
